5th gen camaro?! pic inside!!!
#3
It looks way to normal (it could pass for a next gen mustang or something too). I think people try too hard to look mordern, I think it needs to maybe look like a 4th gen that got aerodynamic, not like a first gen. 1 2 3 4 5 not 1 5 2 3 4 just my two cents.

That's just some guy's concept picture or fantasy picture. There have been literally hundreds of those floating around. fact is, nobody has an earthly idea what it will look like. yet. people are drawing their own, but that's about it. this one looks pretty much like a retouching of a firstgen with bigger rallye wheels and slightly different angles. nothing new.

That drawing is from a two year old issue of Motor Trend, or Road and Track or something like that. They also had a non-retro version in the article. They were just presenting thier artist's conception of what a new Camaro could look like, not what it will look like.
I have the issue at home in my, ahem, "library". I'll try to remember to check it out and maybe even scan and post it.

Going by the latest "trend" with the Beetle, T-Bird & Mini and the '05 Mustang pics around the net, I wouldn't be surprized if the 5th gen does indeed sport a retro look as well

yeah i get Muscle Mustang and Fast Fords (i know i know, i have a camaro but i subscribe to a muscle magazine!! i got a 2 year subscription and don't run out until next summer). they have a pic in there of the '05 mustang but it's covered in the black vinyl to keep it secret, but it has totally changed shape from last year. i'm not into the retro movement that's coming back, so hopefully our camaro's will stick with what's working

I think that would kinda be a good idea, but I don't think it would work. Even though they wouldn't make too much $$ on each one, I think they'd sell plenty enough to make an incredible profit ---BUT--- if a 2004 or later camaro comes out w/ a 427 for $20,000 then it will become way, WAY too common. I think it'd be a great idea if they made a limited production souped up camaro, but it would probably sell for $45,000+. I mean they have Cobra R, SVT Cobra, plus Roush and Saleen offering incredible packages. Some stuff along this line for Camaros would be great, but they'd have to keep the price high and the production limited to make it stay a desirable car down the road.
